I'm sorry Jason I'm LFF. Jason try this fogmanbindings at Hotmail.com. trust me you'll get a quick answer.

I'm sorry mine are LFF and large. I keep forgetting the Stealths are specific as to foot forward.

I like to take the throttle cable off and work it with my hands to feel the tension the springs are providing. Something you may want to consider from Perfect Pass-Aaron told me to up the KX to it's highest value as that also has the effect of making everything happen quicker. Our conversation was regarding the one ball time. As I also put new springs on the carb. It did drop it another tenth. FWIW

At a 150#s I am obviously not Mr. Universe, on the other hand I'm by no means your avg. 57yr.old. You go your whole life taking care of yourself and it's like " why bother? " I don't know if I ever want to grab the barbells again. From the ER to the GP ( Osteo )the next week my GP decides he's going to do some OMT on me. I'm not blaming him but from there on my strength started to leave. When the neuro found out he was not impressed. Just shook his head.

For the moment until surgery he says to just keep it up- Situps, benchpress, Inversion table (don't you love it -I can still remember when Roger Teeter use to write tech articles for Waterski mag. when he worked for EP. ) Never been on workmen's comp a day in my life until now. The best thing about this news group or whatever you want to call it is the information you can get relative to your needs. I will order Mcgills book now.

John please don't get mad at me.

This is from Paul Jager. ( I'm sorry he's a friend of mine ) He sent it to me yesterday.

But I get done watching this and I am thinking to myself how I know 3 other really good skiers besides myself --RIGHT NOW-- that also have back problems. I think that they were not injured from skiing for their present back problems but isn't this a little more than circumspect when all of us are skiers. You do have to wonder about that.

Hey guys - I've used the search on here and pretty much see what everyone has said about a micro discectomy and skiing. The leg weakness part of the equation - how did you guys make out on that part? I went from having mind searing pain ( please someone shoot me ! ) to right now ---ZERO---. Except the extreme weakness and numbness, I can do everything. I signed the consent yesterday. Dr. tells me I will have instant relief and will be able to do everything and anything I've ever done.

Do you feel on the weakness front you have returned to your prior levels of strength and feeling?

thanks

One of you guys said something about wanting to buy Stealth boots up. I'm not trying to use john's site as SIA but if you were serious ( whoever ) I'm selling mine. I wear a 10 1/2 shoe. I don't know - $100 ??? Whatever. If you want them just ask.

 

@Nando that's right. I got a hold of Mark and he had a gut feeling that Pat would have some laying around and he did! In case you didn't know it Terence is H2o Proshop, SN dealer, MM skier, big time down hill skier, inventor and on and on.

We're all pretty much on the same page I think. Hey @Nando those Connelly wings you sent me I was able to come up with some of the originals from Pat Kennally (?). I sent one of those from Pat to Terence . But hey thanks again for that wing.

@MattP I have tried to stay off BOS, but my blood is boiling reading that. Hey Matt is that a "crack" or an honest question? If it's an honest question --that's cool--, and if it "AIN'T" that's really "uncool". You are barking up the wrong tree with Terence. But to answer your question Matt - no they are not. @lpskier John I am glad for once that this is out in the open. Bruce this is not against you, I've talked to Terence before about your stuff. You are cool with him as far as I know. But what John has stated is the simple fact of the matter. Terence isn't on top of the podium yelling "foul," but there are more than a few of us out there that are aware of the facts.

Once again Matt forgive me if I misread your intentions.
